This is the ONLY guide to buy for first time and experienced cruisers alike. Douglas Ward is knowledgable and discerning. He reviews every ship and tells it like it is. Don't be fooled by some well known online Web sites which, in their reviews, are more interested in placating advertisers than serving their users. And don't be fooled by some bloggers and travel agents whose main interest are free trips or high commissions. I've gone on over 50 cruises, but still find this a must and buy the new edition annually.
Buy it once for your first cruise, then don't bother with future editions: All the info remains the same and the book is never updated beyond omitting decommissioned boats. The write-ups never change, the scores never change, modifications and renovations are never reflected in the book. The author appears to get on a class of ships once, write one review for the entire cruise line for all time to come.
We are former cruisers, and are planning one in the next few months. This Berlitz guide is fantastic both for beginning cruisers, or veterans who would like more info to find the best cruise this time. I highly recommend this guide.
I have been cruising since 2001 and have been using Berlitz Cruising & Cruise Ship books since 2002. I update my copy every two or three years. The book is a great resource in choosing cruise lines and ships.
A book that answers almost every question any potential cruise passenger or experienced passenger has. The downside of the electronic version is that it is extremely clumsy switching from one part of the book to another. This is where the printed version totally trumps the electronic version.
Strictly reviews ships. so if you know the line, or ship you want you can look it up. Not what I expected. I'm interested in European cruise. This book will only describe ship I've picked once I find out somewhere else if it goes to the Med.
The author does a very good job with his explanations about the different cruise companies. The scoring system used for the ships was also very interesting.
The first part of the book is a very well laid up and illustrated description of what modern cruising looks like. A good outline for beginners. Unfortunately the main part of the book is not as good. Quite a few ship reviews are done with factual mistakes and discrepances and do not represent a source for fair ship ratings.
